The number of women in the entertainment industry coming forward with charges of sexual harassment is starting to feel endless. They include stars like Gwyneth Paltrow and Angelina Jolie but also heads of tech startups and journalists, gallerists and producers.

These Australian women all died this year. What they have in common is their partners or ex-partners have been charged in relation to their deaths or have been named as the suspect in a murder-suicide. Here, the women's families and friends tell us the stories of their lives.

The buyback of the school will be particularly sweet for Berejiklian, who had a political coming out of sorts when at 15 she campaigned against her high school, Ryde high, closing in 1985.

She then moved to North Ryde high, later renamed Peter Board high. It was closed in 1998 by a Labor government under premier Bob Carr.

The NSW minister for education, Rob Stokes, and the local state Liberal member, Victor Dominello, refused to say what the government will pay for the school site.

The NSW government sold the site in 2006 for $51m to Dexus Property Group. Dexus sold a portion on Wicks Road to Woolworths in 2013 for $30m, for use as a Masters Hardware store, but part of the site is also leased as a playing field to Ryde Hunters Hill district hockey club. The future of the field is unclear.

"We're not taking this election lying down," Howard said. "It's a byelection in challenging circumstances for the government.

"You've got the resources of the Labor Party, GetUp! and the unions, and a candidate for the Labor Party who's got a high profile, although she carries a lot of political baggage because of her failures as the premier of New South Wales."

Mr Alexander resigned from Parliament last month after British authorities failed to uncover evidence that he was not a British citizen.

Mr Howard praised Mr Alexander's "upfront" response to the citizenship affair, but said it was "unbelievable" that the former tennis star had been ineligible in the first place.

"If there ever was a dinky-di Aussie, it's John Alexander," Mr Howard said.

Liberal John Alexander failed to declare thousands of dollars in rental income from his $4.8 million, eight-bedroom luxury property in the NSW Southern Highlands.

Mr Alexander, the Turnbull government's candidate in the crucial Bennelong byelection this Saturday, bought the sprawling 100 acre property in May after inspecting it with his soon to be neighbour, radio broadcaster Alan Jones.

"Mr Alexander" should dismiss himself from parliamentary election. He is rich enough. Say six months at 30 days means he made $252,000 of undeclared cash, less expenses and as I suppose this country luxury caper is "negatively geared" the public owes him, $65,572?... Well done, Alexander... Showing the way to table tennis on country estates... Living next door to the great mouth should be enough.

It looks as if JA represents what's wrong in the Liberal (CONservative) Party: sexism, racism and belittling of the less able... though on this occasion he could have been trying to bring professional politician, including himself, into the sewer. He succeeded magnificently.
